Double-click SUPERAntiSypware.exe and use the default settings for installation.

An icon will be created on your desktop. Double-click that icon to launch the program.

If it will not start, go to Start > All Prgrams > SUPERAntiSpyware and click on Alternate Start.

If asked to update the program definitions, click "Yes". If not, update the definitions before scanning by selecting "Check for Updates".

Then double-click on SASDEFINITIONS.EXE to install the definitions.)

In the Main Menu, click the Preferences... button.

SAS PortableIf you have a problem downloading, installing or getting SAS to run, try downloading and using the SUPERAntiSpyware Portable Scanner instead. Save the randomly named file (i.e. SAS_1710895.COM) to a usb drive or CD and transfer to the infected computer. Then double-click on it to launch and scan. The file is randomly named to help keep malware from blocking the scanner.

Now GMER

GMER does not work in 64bit Mode!!!!!!

Please download GMER from one of the following locations and save it to your desktop:

Main MirrorThis version will download a randomly named file (Recommended)

Zipped MirrorThis version will download a zip file you will need to extract first. If you use this mirror, please extract the zip file to your desktop.

Double-click on the randomly named GMER file (i.e. n7gmo46c.exe) and allow the gmer.sys driver to load if asked.

Note: If you downloaded the zipped version, extract the file to its own folder such as C:\gmer and then double-click on gmer.exe.

GMER will open to the Rootkit/Malware tab and perform an automatic Full Scan when first run. (do not use the computer while the scan is in progress)

If you receive a WARNING!!! about rootkit activity and are asked to fully scan your system...click NO.

Now click the Scan button. If you see a rootkit warning window, click OK.

When the scan is finished, click the Save... button to save the scan results to your Desktop. Save the file as gmer.log.

Click the Copy button and paste the results into your next reply.

Exit GMER and be sure to re-enable your anti-virus, Firewall and any other security programs you had disabled.

-- If you encounter any problems, try running GMER in safe mode.-- If GMER crashes or keeps resulting in a BSODs, uncheck Devices on the right side before scanning.

All scans above should be performed in regular boot mode, and if that is not possible then I will post instructions in a follow up reply on how to get into Safe Mode to perform the scans. Also all scans should be COMPLETE and not quick unless specifically instructed to do so.
